Caution:

To enjoy images on a TV, make sure to select the right items
for the following four: video cable, TV's video input jack, and
this unit's video output jack and video output mode. Other-
wise, images do not appear properly.

What is progressive scanning?

The conventional TV system displays 30 frames of still images per
second to complete sequential movement (interlaced scanning).
Whereas, progressive scanning displays one frame every 1/60th of
a second (60 frames per second) to realize less-flicker, high-density
images.

Compatibility of the progressive scan TV

Some progressive scan TVs are not fully compatible with this prod-
uct, which may cause image distortion. In this case, switch the vid-
eo mode from "Progressive" to "Interlace".

Connecting to a TV with an S-video input jack:

If your TV is equipped with an S-video input jack, you can enjoy
higher quality images by connecting it with an S-video cable (not
supplied).

Connecting to a TV with component video input jacks:
If your TV is equipped with component video input jacks, purchase a
component video cable to enjoy higher quality images.

Set the video mode to "Interlace" (default setting). For the proce-
dure, refer to "Changing the video output mode" on page 22.

For a progressive scan TV, set the video mode to "Progressive".
Select "Interlace" for a non-progressive scan TV. For the proce-
dure, refer to "Changing the video output mode" on page 22.

E Care of discs

Discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking can occur

due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow the guide-

lines below for maximum enjoyment from your disc collection and
player.

@ Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label
side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.

@ Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive
moisture.

@ Always hold the discs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on
the discs can cause noise or mistracking. If a disc is dirty or does
not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out
from the center, along the radius.
